: I got my new cam from Harold
Jim W Dec 5th, 03, 8:20 PM I got the cam, and its the weekend and I cant get a hold of Harold and I have a question. The cam is for a 396 now a 402 67 chevelle, but the paperwork that came with it says it is for a oldsmobile v8, are these the same cam Thanks Jim
Nickel333 Dec 5th, 03, 8:22 PM You got the wrong cam...call him and bitch, maybe youll get a deal :D
Wooderson Dec 6th, 03, 1:04 AM If it's for an Olds, it will have only one tapped hole where the cam gear bolts onto. The Chevy will have three.
Good luck. You have have mail.
Bob West Dec 6th, 03, 8:32 AM We sure are getting alot of customer service complaints from "harolds cam company" :rolleyes: right Tom graemlins/thumbsup.gif
UDHarold Dec 7th, 03, 10:18 PM Jim,
Sorry about the mix-up. Is the cam marked with the grind number you wanted, and is it a BBC? The spec card is always the last thing done, so it may not reflect the actual cam you have. This is true of all cam companies, and is a common source of confusion. Lunati's spec card program was written by their old cam designer, who is now Bullet Cams' cam designer. I have already brought my disatifaction to them.
As far as Lunati being "Harold's Cam Company", I'm afraid it was in business before I knew how to design a cam, and I'm merely the latest employee. I design cams, and I make suggestions that I think will improve things. I have no power to change their rules.
However, we had a very successful show at PRI, and my boss remarked on Saturday that they should have a number dispenser to line up the people that wanted to talk to me.
Jim,
Let me know the cam grind and your E-Mail address, and I'll send you a correct spec card.

Big James 4XL Dec 8th, 03, 3:53 PM I sure do wish I'd get my Lunatidyne cam!!!
Unfortunate mix-up for me too, they lost my info compltely and I had to reorder!!! :confused:
Rock68SS Dec 8th, 03, 4:20 PM Yea, I had a problem also. I cancelled my order. Maybe I'll try again next year. I'll put the CC 294S in since I had it on the shelf. I was looking forward to the 288/296 potential for the stroker I'm putting together. :( :(
BillsCamino Dec 8th, 03, 4:41 PM Patience, gentlemen! :rolleyes:
Sure, right now, there is a few issues with delivery of Harold's cams. There are going to be mixups. You're dealing with a large corporation releasing a new line of product.
For example, my cam sat on Lunati's shelf, completely finished ground and ready to ship, for 2 weeks just waiting on a part number to be assigned to it.
I'll tell y'all....it was WELL worth the wait!! graemlins/thumbsup.gif
Good things are worth waiting for...

Good things are worth waiting for... I hear ya Bill! I already run an Ultradyne, that's why I'm antsy to upgrade to the solid!! But it's frustrating to think you have a cam ordered only to call to check on it's status and nobody knows nuthin!!!
Patience? How much does it take? Reminds me of the cartoon with two buzzards sitting on a wire. One says to the other,"Patience my a$$, I'm gonna kill something". :D
Jesse66Original Dec 9th, 03, 8:05 PM Hey Von buddy, funny you would make mention of the two buzzards cartoon. You will not believe this but I had that exact cartoon hanging on my room wall in Dang Nang, Vietnam. Take care.
